Dr. Jeffrey L. Reynolds

In this powerful memoir, two-time cancer survivor Dr. Jeffrey L. Reynolds draws profound parallels between endurance sports and his unexpected battle with cancer. As a self-described "weekend warrior" who transformed from casual 5K runner to Ironman triathlete, Reynolds discovered that the mental fortitude, physical discipline, and resilience he developed through swimming, biking, and running prepared him for back-to-back cancer diagnoses.

​

With unflinching honesty and unexpected humor, Reynolds shares his journey through prostate and colorectal cancer, revealing how the skills that carried him across so many marathon and triathlon finish lines helped him navigate surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. His story isn't just about surviving cancer twice - it's about how facing our greatest challenges can lead to our most significant personal growth.

​

"Every Mile Matters" offers practical wisdom for anyone facing adversity, whether it's a health crisis, personal struggle, or seemingly impossible goal. Reynolds' message is clear: the path to becoming stronger isn't about avoiding difficulty, but rather embracing it with purpose, vulnerability, and gratitude.

​

Part cancer memoir, part life philosophy, and part training guide for life's unexpected races, this inspiring book reminds us that we're all capable of more than we imagine - and that sometimes our greatest tests become our most powerful testimonies.
